Starting a thread with "I'de like to start a thread" is non-sense therefore not right.

I'm not a pedant or a nitpicker. Can I still comment?

"I'm not a pedant or a nitpicker" is a comment. Unless anything happened to you after your comment was made affecting your ability to comment again then you can still comment, even in your belief that you say your not a pedant or a nitpicker, words are cheap and the proof's in the pudding Originally Posted by pugwash

Doesn't "proof's" need an apostrophe? And 'Your" is supposed to be "you're". That one REALLY DRIVES ME NUTS! Originally Posted by springwater

I thought a pedant was a male school teacher. So I can't see the relevance to 'nitpickers'.

I hate to be pedantic but that is not a comment, it's a statement. Originally Posted by springwater
